Professionalism, handling all itinerary from picking us up from our hotel to dropping us off at the hotel. The guide, Argyris was personal and friendly with lots of great stories and interesting facts from the island.
If we ever get to go again we will do this again and try and request for Argyris again. After the tour he found us the information we needed to purchase a painting from a dealer. Really did go above and beyond.
Thank you for making this a very memorable trip Argyris.

Clean rides in a Mercedes to and from the airport with very nice drivers that spoke English. Nick, our guide was super knowledgeable about the area, history and culture as a Santorinian. He chose a fabulous lunch spot seaside with delicious and authentic food. The scenery and beauty of the island was incredible. Finished the day with wine tasting and tour of the local winery. Perfect!

Our 6-hour private tour of Santorini was a highlight of our trip. From the stunning views in Oia to the quaint charm of Megalochori, every moment was magical and I absolutely recommend it.
Santorini is famous for her wines and we also visited Gavalas Winery for a wine tasting! It was a sensory delight, and their wines were exceptional.
The Red and Black Beaches were unlike anything we've ever seen, and our guide's insights enhanced the whole experience. This tour exceeded our expectations and left us with cherished memories.
It’s amazing that in one day we had the chance to see so many locations in Santorini and enjoy the whole day!
The guide we had was the best and explained us everything during the day trip.
Thank you Argyris and hope to see you soon in another tour day!
